Consumer Testimonials

What I liked:
- Cost of the kit
- Effortless to install and operate
- Integrated telephone call unit
- Range of the sensors
- No false alarms
- WIndow/door sensor can readily be modified to manage two or far more wired magnetic sensors. All you want to do is connect the new dispositives in serie with the existing one
- I can call the manage unity with my mobile phone and disarm the alarm prior to get property when I'm not with the remote manage
- My phone rings within 9 seconds after the alarm is triggered
- The manage unity saves a history with the information and zone of the 5 last instances it was triggered
- Operates with 9V batteries
What I dislike:
- Only a single remote manage
- Not quite loud. I can barely hear it outside my apartment if the front door and the room door (where it is installed) are closed Things get improved if I install it close the door, but this way a person can readily smash it or unplug the phone cable in a couple of seconds. I'd rather to have an external siren
- Manual have two distinct procedures for remote operation of the alarm. The appropriate is the second a single in the end of the manual where you really should press a quantity + to operate the control unity
- Extra accessories (especially the remote manage) can be highly-priced and difficult to uncover
- Window/door sensor could be smaller sized
- There is a smal screw in the back of the control unity that entered inside it via a smal hole the very first time I opened it to insert the battery. It was a discomfort to eliminate it later
- I'd like to have a keyboard outside house so that I can disarm the alarm without having the remote manage.
- I didn't discover how to disarm zones devoid of deleting the sensor from the control unity database
What was a plus (characteristics not informed in the manual or in the item description):
- Window/door sensor have a glass break detector. It triggers the manage unity with influence
- WIndow/door sensor have a switch to locally play an alarm sound even if the control unity is not armed.
- Control unity have four wire connections in the back: 1 for external siren and 3 triggers (1 generally closed and two generally open for additional sensors)

Right after 6 months, the 9V battery of the motion sensors are more than. The battery of the window/door sensors are still OK.

The manage unity alerts you when the battery of the sensors are also low. If you do not repair, it can give false alarms.
I removed the batteries from the motion sensors and connected to the 9V output in the control unity. Almost everything is operating fine and I do not want to replace the batteries just about every 6 months anymore.

This critique includes the Mace Dwelling Security unit PLUS the optional external speaker.
I bought this program about a month ago. It came with both an instructional DVD plus written instructions. Both were fairly uncomplicated to follow. It may possibly take a couple of tries on some of the items to be programed for the reason that it will revert back to the major menu if you take also long but this is not a situation. Generating positive the detectors are correctly set up is a should otherwise it will not arm correctly. Make positive the door/window sensor is no more than 1/4 inch apart. If either is set up incorrectly it will tell you on the lcd to please close and provides the sensor quantity that is not appropriate (included motion detector is 1 and door/window sensor is 2). It's wise to double check telephone number entries,delay times, and so on upon completion. I have the door/window sensor located in my outdoor store about 125 feet away past three walls from the key control and it works fine. I've utilised motion detectors ahead of and they can be a difficulty because they will detect pets or even rodents. It's best to find them in narrow locations (such as a narrow hallway) to decrease the risk of a non human triggering it. The alarm is particularly loud and can be heard all through my house but since I reside in a rural area and also wanted to defend my detached shop, I chose the external alarm. I would say that when set up it may perhaps have an productive range of about 200-250 feet, depending on neighborhood noises. This hopefully would scare away intruders but not certain my neighbors (about 900 feet away) would notice it.
My only complaint concerns the instructions. In the course of my initial set up I had troubles arming the method and had to call client help. The instructions indicated that troubleshooting details was on the market on their website but there was none. I was able to get a troubleshooting guide from tech support and he indicated that hopefully this would be put on their internet site in the future.
Also, the instructions for the external siren indicated there are 3 various versions of software program created over the years that required several programing strategies and the serial number of the main control unit indicated which version I had. This proved to be incorrect and again I had to call tech support to get the appropriate programing process. The excellent news is that Mick at tech assistance was good. He responded rapidly to my calls and walked me by means of the couple of minor issues I had. For me, it really is not just about a superb value (I paid about $72 which includes shipping for the Residence Security package and about $42 for the optional siren) but client help and I rate each at A+. Once more, my only problem was with the directions and hopefully these will be corrected by Mace. I decided it still earned five stars based on the fantastic support they provided.
I researched a quantity of alarm systems and found this unit to really be an exceptional order based on it is top quality and functions and I am pretty happy with it.
